Dry A merica Joke
In Merry England
LIVERPOOL, Oct. 1VA curiious
commentary upon 'dry' America", says
the Liverpool Post, "is contained in
the following cable whleh has been re
ceived from the states by a well known 1
British whiskey firm:'Could dispose of
20,000 to 25.000 cases if they arrive
by November' "
"Each case referred to in the cable
contains a dosen bottles of whiskey,
and therefore indicates a capacity on
the part of America to dispose of whis
ey in spite of her 'prohibition laws.

cheapstand quickest radiator to repair in eat, of accident '
A small leak may be plugged up temporarily with anything that is convenient
until the proper time comes to remove the radiator for repair.
If the leak is targe one, the affected ares may be cut out entirely and a rsw
repair section fitted Into place in such a manner ss to avoid detection, without
interfering In any wsy with the circulation or cooling properties. This Is dis
tinctly a Buick feature. '
As will be seen from the sectional photograph shown, this leaves all of the ver

put in, and does away entirely with an unsightly repair Job, reduced circulation
space or the cost of a new radiator.
